Hey everybody. So yesterday we had a day off and no plans so we took a look in the National Trust book and headed off to Baddesley-Clinton House. Its an old tudor manor house which is surrounded by its own moat! The nearest train station is 2 miles walk away but that was fine so we bundled up in our warm coats and scarfs and hats and set off down the country road. It was another one of those estates that has a really long drive way so that when we actually turned off the road we still had like another mile to walk! Then we got to the house and found out that the house was closed for the winter. Oops. Only the garden and restaurant were open so we had a nice lunch and a walk around the garden and the fish pond. We did get to look around the outside of the house so I guess that's not too bad. So afterwards we walked back to the station and luckly caught the 2:35 train back to Warwick (because the next train wasn't for another 2 hours!).
So thats our story.

You don't have much luck with National Trust opening hours, do you! Glad you had a nice lunch, though - NT restaurants tend to be rather good though not cheap! Pam
